CCS vs WERA

[bmfgsxr]

slightly off topic, but since you guys are talking about transponder location.. at LRRS we mount then on the upper part of the fork just under the top triple and never have any problems. just thought id throw that in for you guys  with concerns.

Mongo isn't there a National at Jennings JP, isn't that in florida?  Maybe I'll have to get the drill out and win some WERA races at jennings. >:(

I took WERA this year because of the schedule.  If I dont like it, I will sell the transponder and do CCS again in 04.  I have heard many racers biootch about CCS at races and the same with WERA guys complain about WERA.   I added the entry fees up and pre-entry with WERA will come to $20 cheaper than pre-entry with CCS for 4 races (3 sprints and 1 Solo 20).  $20 is $20 and can cover gate fees, beer, food, strip club..whatever.  I just liked the WERA schedule fitting better into my real work schedule so I am trying it in 04.  Came to about 50 hrs less less leave I woulda had to take doing WERA vs. CCS.  I liked CCS and am sure I will like WERA.  So long as my arse is on that machine I am happy.

$20 dollars cheaper than CCS.  Now for nine ( round #) events thats a $180 savings!  Now you only need to come up with $120 more to pay for the transponder!  Racers are not good accountants. (Announcers are worse!)

transponder life they say is good for 5 years. $260 divided by 5 = $52.00 a year for the transponder.  :)
It does suck you have to buy it but hey, does one really need to run VP fuel in amateur? No, but some do.
